8. "Save him!"

Eric has been wounded in the act of saving Perseus from Emrys. Myrddin intervenes to prevent Emrys carrying through on his murderous intentions, but Eric's life remains in danger....


Perseus: Myrddin, I know you are a mage. Surely you can do something? Please, save him!
Myrddin: I... I can try....


Myrddin: I have but little talent with healing magic, but I will do my best.






Myrddin: *weakly* It's no good... I'm not strong enough....


Myrddin: I'm sorry... I c-can't...
Perseus: Oh Myrddin... please, don't cry, you tried your hardest!
Myrddin: But I failed! *sob*


Myrddin: He's dying, and it's all because of me!
Perseus: No, please... it's not your fault....


Myrddin: *sobs*
Emrys: Brother....


Emrys: The fault is mine. Let me help make amends. Have you forgotten...?


Emrys: Remember....
Myrddin: Yes. "We two are one."




Perseus: Myrddin, you're drawing too much! I can feel-
Emrys: Silence! He can handle it!


Myrddin: *sigh*


Eric: *groan* Oh... I was... dying?
Perseus: No more, thank God.
Eric: Myrddin! Is he- ?


Emrys: Exhausted, but he'll be fine. It takes much out of him to channel so much power. it has ever been thus. I have raw power, but little control. He is very skilled, but his own resources of power are small and easily exhausted. But together we are unstoppable.


Emrys: My brother's words and deeds have spared your miserable existance for now, vampire. But do not think this is over. Your blood will be upon my blade yet...


Emrys: ... I swear it.


To be continued....
